In a time where the differences between static and dynamic languages are starting to fade away, this paper brings one more element to the “convergence” picture by showing that thanks to the novelties from the recent C++0x standard, it is relatively easy to implement a JavaScript layer on top of C++. By that, we not only mean to implement the language features, but also to preserve as much of it...

The current investigation aimed to understand primary factors motivating adoption of concurrency and multithreading capabilities by hedge funds, investment banks and trading desks and future trajectory of such implementations. Primary focus was on examining if the C++11 Standard represents a plausible basis for standardization among above institutions for concurrency and multithreading needs. T...

This document revises N1932 = Brown, et al.: Random Number Generation in C++0X: A Comprehensive Proposal. It incorporates all known corrections to that paper’s language and typography, including all emendations requested by the Library Working Group during its Berlin meeting (3–7 April, 2006). and also adopts the context of N2009 = Becker: Working Draft, Standard for Programming Language C++. C...

Limbo is an open-source C++11 library for Bayesian optimization which is designed to be both highly flexible and very fast. It can be used to optimize functions for which the gradient is unknown, evaluations are expensive, and runtime cost matters (e.g., on embedded systems or robots). Benchmarks on standard functions show that Limbo is about 2 times faster than BayesOpt (another C++ library) f...

The primary purpose of this paper is to excise concepts from the wording of the standard library's random number facility. In addition, we have herein provided wording to address all known related library issues (even for some that we believe ought be closed as NAD, in order to provide a basis for discussion). The usual color conventions are used throughout the text to denote the proposed chang...
